That theme is still being worked on by the dev and the reason it seems incomplete is because it is incomplete and that's a big part of why it's still an alpha release.
[G Tablet General] projectzro:
i dont know what im doing wrong but last week i could install gingerbread with no issues other than the market. because of the market issue i use NVflash to go back to square 1 and start over. so i installed VEGAn 5.1.1 with no problems. after about a day i was reading up on other gingerbread roms so i went to try one and it would install but never finish booting. so i nandroid back to were i was and try the rom i had before with the market issues, that one didnt work either.

what am i missing?

ps i cant get logcat to read any farther than from recovery.

in recovery logcat says "/sbin/sh: logcat: not found"
[G Tablet General] projectzro:
[solved] got it ^.^

ok dont know what the F!@# i did but i got it working.

for any of you that care on how it started working its going to be a long post.

basically on my quest to fix this damn thing i decided to use nvflash which didnt work the first 5 times, so i used the original recovery image rather than the rooted one. that semi-bricked it so it would only boot into APX mode. so after an hour of searching XDA i just flashed the enhanced image (like in the guide on the dev forum) and holy crap it worked and installed VEGAn 7 without updating.

dont know how it fixed it but it did.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] erythrophilia:
I thought some might be interested in these scores:

* What: ROM = Typhoon CM7 v2.7.5, kernel = Rafpigna 1.9 GB, other apps = AVG antivirus, Advanced task killer, Prey, Fancy widgets, Facebook, Twitter, water live wallpaper running in the background.

* How: HTC HD2 overclocked to 1497600 Hz. That's the max I can get. If I went higher, phone would crash - not even 'force close'. Quadrant Standard Edition downloaded from the market. SetCPU was on "performance" scale. 10 tests were ran.

* Score: it was in the range from 993 to 1447. It hovered around 1300-1400 after about 4 runs.

* Battery life: I left it on the 1497600 Hz frequency all day. Only Wifi and 2G (no data) were on. All syncing was also on, i.e. emails, calendar, weather, news feeds. 3G, bluetooth, and GPS were all off. Screen brightness was automatic. As you can see on the graph, pretty good battery life. The two dips you see was when I took 2 calls, and the final dip at the very end was when I ran Quadrant.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] aliaselchore:
Not sure if I should post this here.

Also "mmmark111" posted about RomTools for the optimus one. Can't emphasize how helpful and easy this tool is to use. Is for everyone, starting and advanced users.

Problems with recovery this should help. First I was stuck in the LG logo then on recovery. Im sure this will help with that and similar problems with more ease then going back to stock with the unbricking gides. I notice that xionias recovery would get me out of the boot loop and also out of the LG logo.

Quoting my self from androidcentral:

I had thunder but just an hour ago i manage to flash clockwork via ROMTools but same thing it reboots right to clockwork now

Edit: just flash xionia CWMA via romtools im ganna try to fix the loop. i read xionia can do it

Edit: i think i fixed it with out going back to stock and starting fresh. i did the following:

1. Download it ROMTools from http://androidforums.com/lg-optimus...3-1-ex-recoveryflasher-tons-new-features.html

2. Once i got ROMTools running i got Xionia's recovery here http://forum.androidcentral.com/lg-...covery-xionia-clockwork-cwma-v1-2518-5-a.html (just the xionia_cwma_12518.5.img not the flash.ing)

3. I followed the ROOMTools instructions on the FAQ section

FAQ

Can I use this with a different recovery?

-Yes. Any recovery can be used for the supported devices.

-To use an alternate recovery for the V or S, rename the new recovery to vrecovery.img and replace the 'vrecovery.img' included with the new one.

4. open ROOMTools and follow option "2. Flash recovery to phone" is simple just follow on screen instructions. at the end you should reboot in to xionias recovery

5. once on xionias recovery go to "Fix Recovery Loop" option under "Advanced", gets you out of an infinite recovery reboot loop. and wala. this just fixed mine

thanks to:

mmmark111 for ROOMTools

zefie for xionias recovery

CyanogenMod for Clockwork Recovery

and others that im sure im missing

Guys the Nexus S is great, but credit where credit is due, the HD2 is freaking amazing.

The beast will run ANY ROM, and will do it with few errors. One day you can have Sense, the next WM7, Then maybe Linux or Meego.

It even has a functional port of 3.0;)

Respect to the HD2, King chameleon of all phones;)

fortunately, your post is absolutely proper for the general section. and i even agree with you that the hd2 is able to be very diverse. but, as a phone, the nexus s blows the hd2 out of the water. coming from one troll to another, i think that you already know that. otherwise your posts would say "sent from my hd2 magic wand" :p
[HD2 General] JupiterDroid:
Thanks for a positive reply Simms;)

Well i know its a bit of a backward step but I was thinking of selling my NS and getting a HD2 just for the great ability it has to run practically any rom;) Just wanted to hear a few opinions on the subject;)

I own both phones. I think the hd2 is great for its versatility and for how much it has evolved. However, compared to the nexus s, performance of 2.3 on the hd2 is nowhere near the nexus s. Battery life is also horrible on the hd2.

The only ROMs that really matters are those based on 2.3+, which the NS kills the HD2. Why would anyone want to downgrade to different ROMs?
[HD2 General] ll_l_x_l_ll:
while the HD2 is good for running any roms. like windows 7 or android " who gives a **** about meego seriously ? ", the HD2 has its own negative points.

for starters.

- the screen is only 65k or 256k i am not sure. thats very low. some of the wallpapers you will download will look like ****.

- also, its outdated hardware, the CPU, the GPU.. i mean cmon it run asphalt 5 on 20 fps. and that game is ugly horse ****.

- No front facing camera.

- battery wont last you one day with normal usage. unless you decide to buy the tank,... er i mean the extended battery.

- then comes the general image. you are holding a 3 years old phone. even that ugly fat lady whos been single for 4 years wont look at you for holding that phone :rolleyes:

[Folio 100 General] bastospn:
Hi all.I just bought an ipad and i would like to share some thoughts on how this two compares. I decide for first gen, because its was on sale, 32 GB 3g version for just 499€ (with some extra discount) and software wise its pretty much like his young brother.

Build quality is much better than folio, it dont even compares. It fell solid as hell.

The screen is very good, but just a bit smaller than the one on folio.

One thing it misses are the stereo speakers. I would say that folio had in fact better sound.

Speed wise folio is faster. Pages load a lot faster and apps too. Despite that ipad does still runs fine for most apps and games.

Apps in ipad are much richer and polished... And app store is clean and well organised than android market.

Of course ipad doesnt have flash support but this days some major sites are jumping into html5. Still folio is taking the lead here.

One other thing that can give the edge to ipad are accessories... Most are very expensive though There are lots and lots of staff to improve ipad usability. In other hand folio doesnt need to be connect to an pc to get started, and you can use sd cards for grabbing content. Ipad does need to connect to a pc or mac for kick start, and It doesnt sync over the air.

Costumization is very poor under iOS and android is more open in terms of its homescreen replacements.

Ipad keyboard is not as good as other android keyboards just like thumbs keyboard, but its definetly better tha stock android keyboard.

Ipad is very stable and clean... Folio have lots of bugs and it crashes a lot.

Office suite from apple is a must and surpasses android apps on this matter.

One thing Ipad misses is hdmi out, but even using standard AV adaptor output is quite good. It also doesnt do 1080p, but again video is still very good. Folio hdmi output take the lead here.

Apple support is great and you can get extend protection in top of that. Toshiba support is as bad as We all know. One other thing is that with ipad you are sure that you will get iOS updates.

I will say that ipad is a more solid and finished product. Folio was a good try but its not as good as specs suggests, mainly because software and hardware issues that toshiba doesnt wont to fix.

I also would like to refer that battery life on Ipad is quite good, not to say outstanding. Folio is on average but not as long...

[Folio 100 General] papphammar:
How smooth is the folio with foliomod v1.4 compared to the iPad when using the Internet? I'm having a hard time convincing myself not to choose the iPad over the folio. But folio is so much cheaper and more fun loading new roms and home replacements and such....
[Folio 100 General] tshoulihane:
I find the iPad (gen1) very slow for web browsing, plus you are much more restricted about the choice of browsers. There are some big differences between the two, which one is best will depend on where your priorities are. Not having to use itunes to manage my (legally paid for) music is a huge plus for the folio for me.
[Folio 100 General] papphammar:
Does the foliomod rom improve the internet experience? Is there a video somewhere? I´ve seen the video with foliomod 0.2, but is there any newer? perhaps with a comparison?

How does it handle flash, like HDmt.net for example? Would it be possible to run that and display it to a tv? Does the tv mirror what´s on your device or does the folio´s screen turn black?

Btw, I think itunes sync is a plus... :o(But a option would be great...)
[Folio 100 General] bastospn:
Browsing it's not terrible slow on Ipad, but sure is slower than Folio. I think the main problem here is the lack of RAM, this happens when you have lots of tabs open. You can use Life browser that is in my opinion works better than Ipad.

You have lots and lots of browser for iOS, but hardware limitations are of course still affecting performance.

I 100% agree that itunes is not the best tool in the world to organize you music, but I guess I can live with that.
[Folio 100 General] bastospn:
The answer is a big YES. you will get awesome browsing experience with FolioMod.

Still in my opinion it isn't all that stable, maybe because of flash.

You can of course use hdmi out to get a mirror on your TV or LCD display monitor.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] me144:
It's probably something simple, but I would much rather ask a stupid question than be the enraged owner of an Incredibly expensive paperweight. I've been following the How 2 thread, and I've ran into a little issue.

I'm running the official Froyo 2.2 OTA on the Droid Incredible, but am looking to root my device with unrevoked 3.3. I've read through the procedures and searched through support topics, but with no success.

I downloaded the recovery tool, the Android SDK, and the usb drivers from revoked, unzipped them all and installed the recovery tool and the sdk.

I put the phone into HBOOT and installed the driver like the unrevoked guide said, removed the device and reconnected it to ensure that the driver was associated with the device and it is.

Here's the problem.

I reboot into the Android OS and reconnect the device to my pc. Now the driver is listed as 'ADB' in the device manager, which is not the same driver. The driver isn't installed correctly as there is a yellow exclamation point attached to the icon. I opened cmd, changed the directory to appropriate Android SDK directory, ran ADB and the command 'adb devices' to insure that my device was recognized. It is not.

So how do I repair/reinstall the ADB driver so that I don't brick my Incredible? Any and all help is tremendously appreciated

Hey everyone,

I've been shocked to see only Google's Nexus One came with a cute android pouch while the other phones, well... didn't come with one.

My friend has a G2 and I want to get her a pouch as a small gift. I found one on eBay but not sure if the material is similar to the N1's pouch. Can anyone confirm?

and do you think I can add stitchings to the pouch? Is there, perhaps, a site that offers android pouches as well as stitchings?

I actually originally bought it for my Nokia N95, and it's such a universal size that it even fits my G2! It's made of leather and has a nice felt (or something like it) lining inside to keep the phone from scratches and stuff. I've dropped this phone and my N95 while in the case quite a few times and it's saved the phone from getting scratched or dinged. I really love the thing a lot, and it comes in nice colors too.
